Alice – Horticulture

Alice

Horticulture

The course teaches us all aspects of horticulture and the staff are passionate, knowledgeable and want you to thrive. Sparsholt has been an important part of my educational journey because it has inspired me to reach my full potential by completing Level 1, 2 and 3 courses, giving me in-depth knowledge of practical and theory tasks, being exposed to a range of jobs within the industry and being able to apply what I have learnt to a range of different tasks.  

The highlight of my course has been being part of the plants team for our RHS Chelsea Flower Show garden.  

For my work placement I worked at Farnham Castle as a grounds maintenance gardener, which compliments my course well and I hope to secure a Professional Work Placement at RHS Wisley in the Herbaceous Ornamentals team in September.
